And in with the *new* Melly! emoticon

Yesterday I decided to do some cleaning in my room and move things around. Which turned out to be more exercise than I had planned since I took the day off! lol Wile I was cleaning out my closet and dresser I kept coming across all these clothes that I’ve just been waiting to get back into. Looking at how small I was then (1 1/2 yrs ago) compared to now was really depressing! And to think I thought I was overweight! Not likely! Thanks to me smoking I was a thin 6-7. Now I’m in a 16 because I decided being a healthy non-smoker was so much better (best thing I ever did!!) …but who knew I was gonna gain so much in such a short time? And that it would be so hard to get it off?

I guess what I’m getting at is it made me really think about my goals. How unrealistic it was for me to keep those clothes and try to GO BACK to the way was when really I need to be moving forward. So, I threw it ALL out! 4 very large yard garbage bags full! My husband dropped them at the goodwill store this morning. They had to go today or I may have reclaimed them…lol.

And now I feel free! What a relief!

And to top it off I had a loss of 3.2 pounds this WI!! So I would say that so far this has been a great week for me!!

Well I’m off to help my brother in law move today…more exercise!
